Reply to comment by nops-90 in Is this Saddleback backpack recommend? Alternatives? by Sweeneysmithy

Thanks for the reply!

So I've seen their other products as well, all look great, but for some reason this particular one costs way less (the front pocket backpack costs almost three times as much for example). What could be the reason? I'm just trying to figure out if there's some hidden catch here.

Probably the type of leather. Saddleback uses very thick full-grain leather which can be a bit heavy, and this one advertises that it's "lightweight." Worst case, just keep the receipts and packaging and return it if you don't like it.
